re: #297 Obdicut

No, the risk of default is new. We may default, and if we do, it will be because the GOP blocked a clean debt increase. That is the plain fact.

I agree with that, though I’d raise more taxes, including on people in my income level. Would you also increase the capital gains tax?

Nope, but would maybe consider a raise to only short term gains and to gains of substantial wealth- at least $300-500K.
